Prebid Server

Prebid Server is an open source implementation of Server-Side Header Bidding. It is managed by Prebid.org, and upholds the principles from the Prebid Code of Conduct.

This project does not support the same set of Bidders as Prebid.js, although there is overlap. The current set can be found in the adapters package. If you don't see the one you want, feel free to contribute it.

For more information, see:

• What is Prebid?
• Getting started with Prebid Server
• Current Bidders

Getting Started

The server makes the following assumptions:

• No ranking or decisioning is performed by this server. It just proxies requests.
• No ad quality management (e.g., malware, viruses, deceptive creatives) is performed by this server.
• This server does no fraud scanning and does nothing to prevent bad traffic.
• This server does no logging.
• This server has not user profiling or user data collection capabilities.

This project is built upon Vert.x to achieve high request throughput. We use Maven and attempt to introduce minimal dependencies.

When running, the server responds to several HTTP endpoints.

To start the Prebid Server you need to do the following steps:

Building

Follow next steps to create JAR file which can be deployed locally.
